In the Blue

A potter on the canal bank was lovely in the sunshine with the ducks  but did nothing to sooth my angst over the camera.  

The CF card wouldn't go into the slot so I was working with the far slower SD card which didn't matter today but would when I start serious birding. The shutter is sticking too. It doesn't seem like two minutes since it had a full service with a lot of 'stuff' replaced. I do give it a lot of hammer though and wonder if it's had it's day. I don't know what my shutter count is overall but It has to run into  a fairly high, scrub that - astronomic number. I've now even lost count of the shutter boxes it's had.
